Afternoons and evenings are for cultural outings, Mediterranean beaches, flamenco dance lessons, adventure, nightclubs and city touring, including incredible Barcelona. During this three-week high school student program, you will feel like a Spaniard and will never want to bid adios to this incredible country.
